Strange to take the effort regarding paleo-Hebrew, but not use it with Yahweh's (𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄) name in the title. Guess a Cohen will fork it.

But you're not supposed to take the name of the Lord in main().

  Just make sure that no other variables like any blasphemous globals are declared before the one true declaration. (Returning false anonymous) nested functions, which may cause side effects, seem necessary unless the interpretation is such that the only implementation is near to the one combinator basis https://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.19.5163 https://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.19.....

You can't say the Tetragrammaton out loud though. Personally I find it hilarious that apparently in more than one case the common Hebrew spelling of YHWH, יהוה, was wrongly understood or just misspelled as πιπι (pee-pee) in Greek texts. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetragrammaton https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetragrammaton

  Then don't say it or substitute "my lord" when spoken. No prohibition against it writing it.

    That's correct, but my comment was basically an indirect suggestion of using peepee as a syntax keyword or language name.

    In Orthodox Judaism there is also a rule against erasing or defacing names of God (instead, you're supposed to bury them in a cemetery). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genizah https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genizah That also then generates a reason to try to avoid writing these names unnecessarily, because using them unnecessarily increases the chance that someone will deface them, or creates extra material that has to be disposed of carefully.

      The "rule" or concept appears in BT Shabbat 115a, which directs that holy writings in other than the <Hebrew and Greek languages> (Targum) require "Genizah" that is, preservation: https://www.jewish-funerals.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Joe-Blair-Genizah-Project-Writeup-Final-8-12-2015.pdf https://www.jewish-funerals.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/J.... This appears to be in Hebrew and remaining electronic leaves nothing to bury.
